Welcome to the gang Rick
Don't know from experience but I've heard of people picking them
up in estate cars with roof racks so would imagine a transporter
would be fine.

Welcome Rick, Was talking to Graham at C.S.C.last week and he was telling me about selling a Tiger to somebody near me, he said Oldham,I live in Romiley Stockport, so that must be you, if once you have started the build and you wanted to see anything in situation then its not far for me to pop round with Tiger

Hi Rick
I picked a supercat kit up from southways in a long wheel van and had loads of space left, but wanted to ensure tno damage.
We have now got to the rebuidling of the engine stage looking forward to chruistmas to assemble.
We are in Middlewich, J 18 off the M6.
Good luck with the Build
